| Yhteenveto: | Primates live in stable social groups in which they form differentiated relationships with group members and use a range of communication including facial expressions, vocalizations and gestures. However, how these different types of communication are used to regulate social interactions, and what cognitive skills underpin this communication, is still unclear.

This article is part of the theme issue 'Cognition, communication and social bonds in primates'. |
